Welcome! I’m excited to have the opportunity to introduce you to Server-Side Web­Assembly. It goes without saying that the development of web and browser technologies has had a foundational role in shaping the modern internet. Even today, as advancements like mobile and AI have reshaped how we think about interacting with internet services, the core technologies of the web, like HTTP and REST, are at the heart of these advancements. In this book, you will learn how WebAssembly, which started as a component on the client side for the browser, has turned into server-side technology for service development.
